Comments:
While many observers expected a sensor upgrade when Canon announced this year’s first new DSLR, the new EOS 30D sticks with the EOS 20D’s 8.2-megapixel CMOS chip, while offering some noteworthy improvements over its predecessor. The camera body has be

Review Verdict: With the bundled EFS 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 lens, the EOS 30D produced image files that looked sharp, detailed and colour accurate. Their dynamic range was also above average - even for a DSLR. Imatest showed this camera-plus-lens combination was capable of ver

Comments:

Review Verdict: An excellent midrange digital SLR, the 30D has given way to its even more excellent successor, the 40D. However, it remains a great choice if you can find it at a good price.

Comments:
The EOS 30D may not be much of an improvement over the 20D, but it's still a great camera.

Review Verdict: A bit of a disappointment for anyone hoping for a major upgrade, the EOS 30D is unlikely to attract anyone who already owns a 20D. However newcomers to the mid-level DSLR market will find a superbly specified camera with the usual Canon hallmarks of relia

Comments:
Canon's 8.2Mp EOS-30D is a follow-up to the 20D â€" in essence, it's a 20D Mark 2, sporting few improvements. But the 20D was an excellent camera, of course.

Review Verdict: The EOS-30D offers pro handling and excellent quality. It's a great step-up from entry-level digital SLRs, but only a modest upgrade from the EOS-20D.
